Jonathan Quince: “This one has declared herself untouchable to men. Suitors may beg a whispering or a kiss, but they are rebuffed by stolid wall of casual indifference. The man who has all the attributes of perfection, such that he may be desirable to every one of femalekind, is not of this world; and we shall speak not of him. Yet without that mythical sublime power of the universal alpha seductor, what chance have mere mortal men against her armor of disinterest? They had best close their eyes to her beauty, for her very nature rejects them.”
Yet another piece of writing ruined by a disclaimer.
